"Every time God spoke during creation, order came out of the chaos." (Thomas Madden at Life Church Huntsville over a year ago.)

This applies to our lives as well, even the lives of the families with prodigals.

He also said, "Speak prophetically the word of the Lord."

Then he talked about how satan is not omniscient. He does NOT know everything. ("But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory." -- 1 Corinthians 2:7-8)

He said, "All that satan is doing in my life is a set up by God for His will to be done, for the glory to be revealed." That is powerful, especially for those families with prodigals.

Then he gave some direction: "We have to roll the stone away and move into spiritual warfare. We are the ones who rolled the stone over the situation and decided to just cope."

So. . . roll the stone away; move into spiritual warfare; speak prophetically the word of the Lord; and NEVER believe satan's lies.

About Me

The picture should tell you if you have found the right person, but in case you haven't seen me in years and I have changed beyond recognition, I will tell you a little about myself.

I am a Christian first and foremost. I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt (of really wonderful nephews and a niece), sister-in-law, daughter-in-law, niece and great-niece. I am a musician whose principal instrument is piano, but I have played clarinet, oboe, piano, organ, keyboard, accordion, flute and saxophone on stages as well as singing. I have directed bands and choirs. My first love in music is using it to worship our amazing Creator!! I write music and am currently writing several books and a Christmas musical. I taught piano from home for about 19 years in all. My favorite places to be are home, church, with family and friends and the beach. Decorating is a passionate hobby. (If you are in need of an idea for a room, I have several I am not currently using!!!)

Most of all, I love the Lord, my husband, my children, my family and my friends.

I was born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama (Roll Tide!!); raised in Gordo, Alabama; went to high school in Grand Bay, Alabama. I have moved 26 times in my life! I think that about covers it.
